Garden of the Gods Family Photography | Megan & Jeff’s Colorado Springs Session

There’s something timeless about photographing families in nature — the laughter, the hugs, and the fleeting in-between moments that tell a story all their own. I’m Bobak Radbin, a Colorado Springs family photographer, and recently I had the joy of capturing Megan and Jeff’s family session at Garden of the Gods. It was one of those golden Colorado days filled with pure love, laughter, and the kind of memories that only family can create.

Meet Megan, Jeff, and Their Wonderful Kids

From the moment I met Megan and Jeff, it was easy to see the strong bond they share — not only with each other but with their two incredible kids, Finley and Sayja. Their family radiated happiness and warmth, and my goal was to capture that natural energy in an authentic way.

The kids, full of curiosity and playfulness, made this session such a delight. Between giggles, climbing rocks, and exploring the park’s pathways, Finley and Sayja brought every frame to life.

Why Garden of the Gods is Perfect for Family Photography

If you’ve ever visited Garden of the Gods, you already know there’s nothing quite like it. The vibrant red rock formations, open skies, and warm light create a stunning backdrop for any kind of portrait session.

It’s one of my favorite places for family photography in Colorado Springs — especially because it allows families to relax, move, and truly connect. Whether we’re chasing sunset light or exploring hidden trails, every photo feels authentic and full of heart.

A Day of Laughter, Love, and Connection

During Megan and Jeff’s session, we explored several of my favorite photo spots in the park. The towering red cliffs and soft evening glow set the perfect stage as the family shared moments of laughter, affection, and quiet joy.

I always tell families that the best photos aren’t forced — they happen naturally. Watching Finley and Sayja play, seeing Megan and Jeff share a quick smile, or capturing a spontaneous laugh — those are the moments that turn into lifelong memories.

Capturing Family Bonds Amidst Colorado’s Natural Beauty

The beauty of Garden of the Gods family photography lies in how effortlessly nature complements the warmth of human connection. The colors of the rocks, the golden Colorado sunlight, and the emotion of the moment come together to create something magical.
